You would first have to subscribe to the service. If you have XBMC, it has a feature similar to live that you can access from free.

ok so ur saying u have your pc connected to ur modem through one ethernet adpter with a regular cat-5 and ur xbox connected to ur pc through another ethernet adapter with a regular cat-5? if so you have to use a cat-5 crossover cable for connecting ur xbox to ur pc and bridge the two connections in your network places. here is a tutorial on how to make a crossover cable out of a regular cat-5 if u don't have one http://forums.afterdawn.com/thread_view.cfm/228856

you need to mod ur xbox to use xbmc is ur xbox modded? so ur xbox is not connected to a router it is connected directley to ur pc with a straight cat-5? to connect directly to ur pc you need a crossover cable.

ok then switch the straight through cable to a crossover cable and you need an xbl account or you can use xbox connect.
